Just once I'd love to see a major government force a company into bankruptcy by making them clean up their own mess.

Company: "We can't clean up our industrial mining waste, it's too expensive and we would go under!"

Government: ~~okay well we will have the taxpayers pay for it. Here have a bailout. Remember, daddy loves you so much~~ "Oh then I guess you should have factored that into your costs. Get to work. And when you have no more money to pay for others to clean it up for you, we expect to see the executives and management out there with gloves and a can-do attitude"

Red = ded

If you don't want ded, make sure no red.

And since this is the world we live in, most people proceed with that understanding.

This was not the case in 2007.

That could come later.

For now it just means reassigned to a desk somewhere not too far from MPs.

Hey that sounds like studying linguistics to me! ^Pun^ ^mildly^ ^intended.^

That's gotta be a bit of a gut punch though...

I've only ever met a few native Germans in person, and understand just enough to get to the bathroom, so I don't know if I just misheard, or they're one of the few people who do say it that way.

I'll take any native German's word on their own language though! Lol or even anyone who's studied.

I've internally been saying "eesh eel"

Cuba, the "dirty evil communist" country that only struggles because of a bullshit embargo placed on them by people who are dead and whose opinions are irrelevant to modern day?

The Cuba that churns out so many doctors, they basically have to leave the country to find work because they have so many doctors already?

The Cuba that, if I bothered to look at quality of life statistics would almost all point to "Cuba is a generally well run country but suffers because of trade bullshit"?

That Cuba?

Or you could try bringing up ~~occupied Palestine~~ "Israel", I'm sure you'll have your "gotcha" moment there!

Lmao calling me a liberal is an insult

Miles Obrien understands the importance of a union, and the importance of the people who actually make the wealth for the owning class.

Miles Obrien also understands that fascists should be stopped at all fronts, including your precious dictator states.

I'm sure you'll use your spotlight to throw around more school yard insults about people's intelligence or political leanings, or post gifs or emoji, but all you'll get from me is pity.
